Bar Harbor WorkshopI don’t make New Year’s resolutions my goal list is constant.  It’s reviewed and updated every six months with the French girls and I’m counting down the days until I see them!

Bar Harbor WorkshopMy personal projects slowed down this year because of my travel schedule but I still found small pockets of time to learn and challenge myself to grow.

Bar Harbor WorkshopThese images were taken this summer at a workshop in Maine and even though my progress has been slow I’m happy with the results.

Bar Harbor WorkshopWhat are you making time for in 2012?  I will definitely find more time for my photography!

Thanks to Tamara and all the wonderful ladies I met in Bar Harbor this past Summer, it was truly a pleasure!

Wishes for a wonderfully creative and prosperous New Year!

Eiffel Tower

I don’t think it’s far and this Eiffel Tower is very close…

It sits on a bookshelf in my apartment. These photos will be added to the Color Your World project I’m trying to keep up with.

CiaraI have been working on my editing skills and because I’m still learning the process is exhausting.

CiaraBut when I break it down into small steps and do a little at a time the results aren’t that bad.

Ciara & Mom

I hope you agree.

Enjoy!

She is a wide angle shooter.

MariaHer images tell a story.  My images focus on details and usually a single moment.

Maria’s CameraI have a difficult time shooting at wide angles.  I just want a detail.

New YorkHowever Subject No. 2, the view from my window, is not only available at all hours, it never looks the same.

The 59th Street Bridge, NYC
The only time I can’t shoot out the window is during UN week when the sharpshooters on top of the UN have just as good a view of me as I do of them.

The United Nations, NYCWhat I love most about these shots is I don’t use a tripod or a flash and am usually holding my breath to keep the camera still for a very long 1/4 of a second.

Chrysler Building, NYC Chrysler Building, NYC

Funny how that works.

Enjoy!

MickeyI’m slightly subject challenged, however I have two backup subjects available at almost any time.

MickeyThis is a glimpse of Subject No 1, Mickey (Michaela if you want her fancy name).

MickeyNot as fun as shooting children but as a model she is relatively cooperative and excellent at the leave-me-alone-already look.

Enjoy!
